He we have The Strike Bowling shoes by Mod Shoes
When we first started Mod Shoes we were asked for “Chisel Toe” bowling shoes, like the ones from the 80s, the type Shelleys used to sell. It has taken us this long to find a good supplier, and also get as close as possible to the shape. This style of design is only available from Mod Shoes
Notice that the front is much slimmer and less rounded than other bowling shoes on the market. And copied from a pair from the 80’s.
Also we wanted to do a good bowling shoe, so the leather upper is super soft, and supple. Literally no wearing in ! The sole has an extra grip piece added at the front. So if you are wearing these out and about, you aren’t going to slip over (But if you do, you cant sue Mod Shoes)!
Sizing
Stick with size, unless you are super wide fitting. Some people feel these are quite a big shoes. So go down NOT up if you are between sizes. The design means they are more suitable to normal width, but a sizer bigger doesn’t look big. We have had some back for being too big, please note that the leather is super soft, so if in between sizes, go down, not up. I am wideish 8.5 in my right foot, and an 8 was very good for me.
Upper: Leather
Sole : Man Made
Sizes 40(6) – 46(12)
We also do a ladies version in some colours
Mens Sizing
We use the following size conversions. Please be aware that different designs are designed to be bigger than others. We try our best on the product page to mention sizing.
Men’s Sizes
| UK | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 |
| Euro | 40 | 41 | 42 | 43 | 44 | 45 | 46 |
| US | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 13 |
Please Note that are shoes are made mainly in Spain & Portugal and Euro to UK Conversion means that the shoes normally come up a little big. The reason is that a 43, is more like 9 and 1/4.

A solid performer, these bowling shoes are not only aesthetically pleasing by using a chisel toe (rather than a clownish round toe), they are also super comfortable—and roomy enough to accept Birkenstock metatarsal inserts for extra comfort with either proper dress socks in summer or heavier crew socks in cooler weather. I think the secret to this must be a slightly taller upper in the body of the shoe because the overall width profile remains sleek and trim. Got ‘em in stunning burgundy and black; looking forward to the next release in blue or blue / black two tone.

These are fabulous. They look great, beautifully made and fit perfectly.
I wore them with a pair of Sta Prest trousers and got a couple of admiring comments. Buy a pair, you won’t be dissapointed.

Excellent quality bowlers, went for a 9 as it’s my size but a bit too much room changed to the 8 fit like a glove, no probs with returns, would recommend modshoes to anyone.
